Nominations now open for Patient's Choice Award

The Nursing Standard Nurse Awards 2014 is inviting the general public to nominate a nurse who they feel has gone above and beyond the call of duty in caring for either themselves of someone they know.

The Nurse Awards, which are organised by the nursing journal Nursing Standard and which are now in their 25th year, aim to showcase the very best in nursing. There are lots of categories in which nurses can nominate themselves, their team, a colleague, or another team, but the Patient's Choice Awards is the one that gives members of the public the opportunity to thank a nurse who has made a real difference to their, or a loved one's, healthcare.

All nurses registered to practice in the UK, pre-registration nursing students and healthcare assistants can enter the awards.

The closing date for nominations is 3 January 2014.
